Hematite tumblestone is a polished piece of hematite that has been shaped and smoothed through a process of tumbling. Hematite is a mineral form of iron oxide, and its name comes from the Greek word "haima," which means blood. Hematite is known for its metallic sheen and is commonly used in jewellery and as a decorative stone.
In the context of crystal healing, hematite is believed to have grounding and protective properties. It is thought to help with emotional balance, enhance focus and concentration, and promote a sense of calm and tranquility. Hematite is also said to stimulate the root chakra, which is associated with feelings of safety, security, and stability.
To use a hematite tumblestone for healing, you can simply carry it with you throughout the day or place it on specific areas of the body. Some people also like to meditate with hematite, either by holding the stone in their hand or placing it on the ground in front of them. As with any type of alternative therapy, it is important to remember that the use of hematite tumblestones is not a substitute for medical treatment and should be used in conjunction with professional medical advice.
